Make your career presentations come alive with this new educational career game package. Begin by selecting one of the eight career topics and involving your students in a fast-moving classroom action game.

Continue your career program by presenting a different career topic and classroom action game until all eight (or whatever number of weeks you have) topics have been introduced. Then, culminate your program by dividing your students into small groups and allowing them to play the career gameboards which test the knowledge they've learned in the classroom action games. Students become so involved in these motivational games that they are hardly aware they are learning valuable information about the career topic as well as the social skills of cooperation, tolerance, and decision-making. The package includes eight different career topics. Each topic includes both a gameboard game to use with two to four students and an interactive game to be used with an entire classroom.

Students will look forward to learning about careers in:

Transportation

Human service

Construction

Business and marketing

Creative arts

Health

Science

Agriculture

This ready-to-use program includes the instruction book, eight colorful gameboards, the supplementary game cards reproduced on colorful card stock, game pawns, and die. Cutting required.
